The strategy for road races this year has been mainly based around position differential plays and trying to get the driver that leads the most laps into the lineup. Historically there has been only one driver a race to dominate and only once this year has a driver led more than 50 laps in a single road race. With that said, below are the core plays for each site. They are meant to be building blocks for your lineups with the rest of the plays coming from the playbook, which was updated for qualifying.
